“We’re gonna have a great night and a fantastic place. We’ve won it twice as you know, two elections and I think we’re gonna have a tremendous night. The people are fantastic and I’ve never seen spirit like they have countrywide. But in Iowa, I’ve never seen spirit like this.” – Donald Trump, speaking to the press this afternoon in the lobby of the Hotel Fort Des Moines. Ted Cruz won the 2016 Iowa caucus. Trump claimed that Cruz stole the election and vowed to sue, but he never did.
One of his tells when he lies is that he says “as you know” right after because that’s the con/pitchman in him to get the person to agree. Even silence is affirmation. It’s how you get someone to buy the Brooklyn Bridge. pic.twitter.com/0uJ0Qpy6Iq

Based on the fraud committed by Senator Ted Cruz during the Iowa Caucus, either a new election should take place or Cruz results nullified.

Ted Cruz didn’t win Iowa, he stole it. That is why all of the polls were so wrong and why he got far more votes than anticipated. Bad!
